Keenan has 25 years of experience in sales, marketing and management in the technology industry. Prior to Mitel, he was vice president of multimedia and telepresence solutions at Nortel and SVP of worldwide sales at Polycom.

“I am excited to be joining the Microcorp executive team,” said Keenan. “MicroCorp is expanding rapidly due to its wealth of industry experience, which has led to a reputation for providing an unsurpassed agent support experience in the master telecom agent community. I am looking forward to leveraging these core strengths as the industry and MicroCorp continue to expand and evolve with new solutions.”

In his new role, Keenan will be chiefly responsible for overseeing MicroCorp’s sales and marketing strategy. He will also be responsible for growing MicroCorp’s expanding VAR division.
